(iv) Improving efficiencies in industrial production processes

Improved efficiency in the production and application of nitrogen fertilizers

Efficiency improvements in production, transmission and distribution

(a) Lead the drive to achieving eco efficiency improving efficiency in material and energy use minimizing waste in production processes recycling solid wastes and waste water

Improving productivity

(b) Increasing productivity

Efficiency should be sought in energy production, distribution and utilization.

(b) Increase energy efficiency, including in the energy production and transformation, industrial, transport, household and agricultural sectors

The Committee encourages further measures to achieve cost effectiveness and productivity gains.

In addition, awareness raising, education, and extension services for farmers are important for improving overall water use efficiency and productivity.

For example, improving energy efficiency and material use efficiency has been undertaken in many sectors under cleaner production and environmental management initiatives.

Raising the efficiency of the manufacture of forest products could reduce timber needs by about a quarter.

Enhancing productivity and competitiveness

There can be two types of improvement in productivity productivity growth based on high and rising rates of investment associated with rising employment and a one off increase in labour productivity associated with static efficiency gains resulting from labour shedding under conditions of stagnant or declining investment.

In table 2.15, add the entry (d) Increased productivity under both Expected accomplishments and Indicators of achievement.

In table 2.22, add the entry (e) Increased productivity under both Expected accomplishments and Indicators of achievement.

Particular attention is being given to the production of standardized building components in order to achieve efficiency in the construction sector.

It had therefore been necessary to increase the productivity of resources.

The objective of the report was to identify opportunities for increasing procurement efficiency and effectiveness within the United Nations system, focusing on productivity enhancement, improved cooperation and coordination, and technological innovations.

Coal mining enterprises shall strengthen and improve their operation and management and increase their productivity and economic results.

(a) Voluntary agreements with energy producers and importers and industry to improve energy efficiency

A sustainable improvement in export performance requires not only productivity growth based on rising investment rates, but also policies that ensure that real wages do not increase faster than productivity growth, and that the exchange rate is maintained at a stable and competitive level.

Their impact is already being felt. They have been and will continue to result in increased efficiency of appeals proceedings before the Appeals Chamber.

Credit enables producers to initiate, sustain, or expand agricultural production and increase productivity.

In tables 2.17, 2.19 and 2.26, add the entry (b) Increased productivity under both Expected accomplishments and Indicators of achievement.

The proposed reduction in posts, matched with redeployment and reform, would promote increased productivity and greater cost effectiveness.

(i) Increasing energy efficiency

It also expects that, with time, productivity will be increased.

The measures analysed here, which emerge from a basis of organizational learning and from managers' efforts to continuously improve processes, are fashioning a more efficient and productive Secretariat.

Because labor productivity...

The objective of the report is to identify opportunities for increasing procurement efficiency and effectiveness in the United Nations system, especially through productivity enhancement, improved cooperation and coordination and technological innovations.

8. Invites the International Law Commission to continue taking measures to enhance its efficiency and productivity and to consider making proposals to that end

The same logic applies to countries. Each country should specialize in producing those things that it produces most efficiently, rather than producing a bit of everything, because that way its income will be higher.

Strengthening research and development and dissemination of new technologies are also important avenues for improving water productivity and efficiency in water consuming sectors.

Reaffirms the need for effective and efficient administration and financial management of peacekeeping operations, and urges the Secretary General to continue to identify measures to increase the productivity and efficiency of the support account

In tables 2.24, 2.33, 2.35, 2.41 and 2.43, add the entry (c) Increased productivity under both Expected accomplishments and Indicators of achievement.

Efficient use of energy reduces pollution, reduces energy intensity, and improves productivity and competitiveness.

The increase in productivity is combined with the promotion of sustainable production systems.

It provides a sense of purpose and mastery two key motivational things that increase productivity, through play.

It can be defined as an activity or procedure that has produced outstanding results and could be adapted to improve effectiveness and efficiency in another situation.

(b) Efficient use of process heat and steam reduces industrial fuel consumption resulting in productivity increases, lower energy bills and improved industrial competitiveness
